The Capitol Building
This is the Texas State Capitol located in Austin, Texas. It took six years to build this fantastic four-story building which was finally finished in 1888 at a cost of over $3 million. The Governor, the Lieutenant Governor, the Speaker of the House, Senators and Representatives all have their offices right here. The building is pink in color because of the "Sunset Red" granite used to build it. In 1990, the Capitol went through an extensive restoration and preservation project. Not only does the building now have larger offices, security cameras, and other new additions, but it also has an Extension that is completely underground!
